i ask and recieve! thanks GOOD. Very interesting photo essay.
this was a great pic piece!
I like how this is playing on all the “green” hype. Everyone wants to make money somehow…
I like the first photo of the woman waiting at the bus stop. I like that they are all moving, yet all waiting at the same time to get to their destinations.
I am an educator, and Iwill say this is one of the best written articles on the state of education I have ever read. You are right in saying that the fun of teaching and learning has/is/slowly dying in our public school system. To me NCLB has set up public schools and children to fail, so that school unions and communites can fail along with them. In you article; “Charters are quasi-public schools that receive public funding but don’t have to play by the same rules; they have more latitude than public schools, including the freedom to use different curricula, employ non-credentialed educators, change the school calendar, ban unions, and be selective in student enrollment.” I have asked many people as to why Charters can “wipe” away the standards and all of the rules and regualtions to “start over” to run in the way they see fit…but public school are locked into this failing system. Why can’t public school have the latitude to change as charter schools do. No one wants to answer my question. Charters are being used more and more to give public control of school back over to private interests. The big sham is that people think Charter schools are the greatest things ever right now…if you look more in dept into them they are not. Government does not want to pay for schooling any longer…and this is there answer. Pass the bucket off to some corporation that has a large P.R. budget. Have fun with that folks!

this bike looks cool, i wonder how it rides though.
There was more to the meeting besides the journalist you can count on that. Just meeting with Kim Jong Il who has been M.I.A. for the longest of times and everyone wondering where he has been and what he has been doing/feeling…there is much much more to this meeting.
The Flamming Lips are in OKC…that might be a plus.
this is a good article and the question should be asked do these people really deserve anything in return for their service as VOLUNTEER. This article reflects America perfectly. Everyone always wanting something in return…Politics and Government is not to be a lifetime career, that is not what the founders intended. Service for good, that is all…serve and go back to the farm. But no, not these days everyone is looking for the next jump up the ladder. You get what you put in!
